Follow-up appointment. After your child starts antibiotics, make an appointment to see your childâs regular doctor. They can check how well the antibiotic is working and prescribe a different one if your child is still sick.epending on your childâs age, symptoms and medical history, they may require either oral antibiotics (antibiotics by mouth) or admission to hospital for intravenous antibiotics (antibiotics given into the vein). Your childâs doctor will first prescribe a broad spectrum antibiotic (one that can treat most bacteria).
Alright, now that weâve gotten the basics out of the way, back to your question. When should you go to your first gynecologist visit? The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends that girls start to see a gynecologist sometime between the age of 13-15. Yeah, I know that sounds early and thatâs because it is. A visit this early is important because it is important to develop a relationship with a gynecologist.
The bottom Line^ There is no one-fits-all answer as to when your daughter should have her first gynecologist appointment. Talk openly to her about her changing body and other issues related to puberty, so that when she is ready to visit the gynecologist, she can ask her own questions and become educated about her body.
